Would'nt it be great if world-class hackers like 'Anonymous' save the world by taking down all this terrorism information? I know, this is the real world, but it's likely to be a bit Max Headroom too.

That would be great - however whats even more easy to do.

Is find where the money that supports these groups coming from ?

IMO,Terrorism is not like in the 60s and 70s , which seemed like political or religious. Today its all about money and terrorism is a huge cash hog . Find the money trail and shut that off has got to be simpler than finding an individual before a crime ?

It does not take any money to put terrorist recruitment rants on Youtube or to upload documents how to construct bombs onto a foreign server.

How much money does it really cost? Don't know how these Boston brothers financed all of their guns, but the bombs don't seem like they cost much to construct either. The older brother probably just took cash from what his wife earned 8o hrs/wk as a caregiver.

Hell, I get coupons from Bed Bath & Beyond in the mail almost every week. I could buy enough pressure cookers on sale to arm a whole f'n jihad — and have enough left over for a new electric toothbrush!

When in HS, a friend of mine and I took apart several 100 Black Cat firecrackers and packed the power into a shotgun shell. We waited until about 10 PM one night and went to a local park that had a small amphitheater structure and set it off on the stage. Sounded like a howitzer !! The flash was so bright we could see our shadows (as we were running away) on the ground... one helluva bright light!! ... and booming sound !

Lesson - it's not rocket science to make an explosive device !

McVeys was fairly crude, but one helluva explosion. NH4NO3 is a helluva explosive, just ask the folks in West, TX.

Turns out from the radio news - the US government help to finance <- via the older brothers was on welfare and his wife worked. These guys worked alone and was not Al-Queada funded , just got advice ? ?

How much money ? I would think for Al-Queada a bunch of cash per head. Remember Al-Q wants them to keep a very low profile so this means they don't get a job or go on government assisted programs.

The first bomb was a drill or training. There were no dead or injured there, it was a "mass-casualty costuming" type of event… (See Video-2 [02:30] below) that was used by the media as hype, specially overseas. The second bomb was real and deadly.
